This Sustainability Recommendation Paper (SRP) highlights the importance of responsible wage digitalization in
Cambodia’s GFT sector, which has experienced significant growth in the number of factories utilising digital wage
payments from 22% in 2018 to 72% in 2024. The paper underscores that wage digitalization benefits employers, workers,
and the broader economy by enhancing transparency, financial inclusion, and security, particularly for women. It
also aligns with Cambodia’s strategic goals of digital economy development and private sector employment growth, as laid out in core government strategy documents.
